The vintage death metal masters of GRAVE have recently finished the recording for the brand new 5-track EP "Morbid Ascent" which serves as an appendix to the band's highly acclaimed 2012 album "Endless Procession Of Souls". This EP includes two brand new tracks, a cover version of Satyricon's "Possessed", a remix version of "Epos" as well as the newly recorded version of "Reality Of Life", a classic GRAVE demo track from the "Sexual Mutilation" demo (1989). The EP opening track "Venial Sin" is featuring some shrieking guest solos by AUTOPSY's Eric Cutler. The eldritch cover artwork as well as additional interior artwork and the entire layout has been done again by Costin Chioreanu, who has already done covers for the three previous GRAVE albums as well as artwork for numerous other artists and bands (Darkthrone, Destroyer 666, Ulver etc.). Check out Costin's website at www.twilight13media.com.

"Morbid Ascent" will be released as a limited 12inch MLP (with full color, 180g vinyl and full color inlay) as well as digital download. Both formats will be offered for a fan-friendly price. The release date of the digital download is set to August 26th. The vinyl version will already be available at various sales stands on PartySan and Summer Breeze Open Air. Keep your eyes open.
